As for not responding to deadlines for large social issues - when is the last time you saw a tropical depression form over the US? And then b-line to the gulf of Mexico, to become a freaking Hurricane, and then attack the US? Al Gore was right. "I dont respond well to X." "I dont want that to be true." "I dont want to believe that." Facts and Stats dont care about "whether you respond" - you sound just like a MAGA-hat when confronted with the actual damning contents of the Mueller report. Welcome to the fruits of Capitalism - if there is a resource to exploit, we're going to burn through it until its gone. Exponentially fast. Whether that's topsoil for food, or sand for circuit-board silicon, or oil underneath the dirt. Or helium for lasers, balloons, etc... Here we are, able to see it coming. And you're letting the most evolutionarily-throwback-ish part of your brain hijack your thinking. "If I hold still and close my eyes as a little lizard, there wont be a problem." Have some discipline. Maybe show that you've evolved. Maybe, just maybe... Understand that civilization is not as robust as you think. We can all be like Detroit. Coast to coast United Serfs in Abandonia. That was the Great Depression. We can burn out the land. The Bronze Age Collapse, the Dust Bowl, the Mound-builders' corn collapse, the desertification of Egypt's Nile-adjacent farmland. All of these cultures simply disappeared. Human Civilization faces extinction, I want you to understand that your toys will not save us. You children and their children, your entire civilization will suffer and die, and leave nothing living behind but roaches and vines. All because you thought it was fine to say, "fuck it, I got mine."
